(10/2005) GIRARD-PERREGAUX held its exhibition "The Watchmaker's Atelier" at the Cathay Financial Hall in Taipei from October 6th to 10th, 2005. This original concept presented the know-how of the Manufacture as well as some of its most remarkable creations.

(08/2005) If it is a question of highest quality, perfection and traditional craftsmanship, the Montblanc brand is one of the market leaders – with its world-famous writing instruments, but also with the exclusive Montblanc watches, which are produced by craftsmen in the Swiss location of Le Locle. These include the colourful variants of the “MiniStar” in pink and light blue, as well as the imposing stainless-steel chronograph “Star XXXL GMT Automatic”, the new classic among the Montblanc watches.

(07/2005) For Breitling, the name Montbrillant refers to chronographs endowed with a wealth of tradition and exclusive features. One such model is the Montbrillant Olympus, a chronograph inspired by the finest products made by the brand in the course of its history. The beaded bezel, for example, is a faithful reproduction of the first chronographs equipped with a slide rule. In the same spirit, the two-tone dial clearly distinguishes the timekeeping zone from the logarithmic scales.

(04/2005) Montblanc first exhibited at the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) in Geneva in 1997 and has since grown to become a respected and successful maker of fine handcrafted watches. In the summer of 2003, the tremendous success and demand for the company’s products required the extension of the Montblanc production facility in Le Locle, Switzerland, to 1000 sqm. This expansion is firm evidence of the growing success of the Montblanc Watch Collection. Montblanc will be unveiling the latest offerings and innovations at this year’s SIHH 2005.

(04/2005) For BREITLING, the desire for innovation is second nature. Since its founding in 1884, the firm has made its mark on watchmaking history through an impressive number of inventions. Some of them, such as chronograph pushpieces, have even been adopted by the profession as a whole. The AEROSPACE chronograph is one of these landmark creations.

(03/2005) At Baselworld 2005, Glycine presents two of its collection’s masterpieces: the conspicuous oversize AIRMAN 7 Gold world time watch manufactured in luxurious rose gold, and the LAGUNARE Chronometer – the first Glycine chronometer to be launched since the 1950s.

(03/2005) The Danish author Hans Christian Andersen is known world-wide for his fairy tales. This year on the occasion of the bicentenary of his birth (1805-2005), celebrations will be held in his honour in many countries. In the years 1831 to 1872 he was one of the most travelled celebrities and visited 11 European countries.

(03/2005) In 2004, Maurice Lacroix’ designers accentuated the independent, distinct, and especially valuable aesthetics of the Miros even more. Now, the Miros Coussin models will be received by aficionados of the new Retro Look with great enthusiasm! Its pillow-shaped stainless steel case is an attention-getter of a special kind and brings to mind the thirties of the last century, in which design was newly defined.

(02/2005) For BREITLING, the name Montbrillant naturally conjures up pictures of the time and place of its first great chronograph factory, perched on a sunny hillside overlooking the Swiss watchmaking city of La Chaux-de-Fonds. It is there that the ingenious inventions of the Breitling family were born, including the most important, the second return-to zero pushbutton, and the most famous, the circular slide-rule created in 1942.

(02/2005) Prestige Swiss watchmaker Omega today started the official countdown to its return to Olympic Games timekeeping at the XX Olympic Winter Games – Torino 2006. To mark the occasion, Omega organised a unique photocall with a host of Olympic winter Games legends. Omega has a strong tradition in Olympic Games timekeeping. Having been the first-ever company to be appointed official timekeeper of the Olympic Games at Los Angeles in 1932, the brand had the same honour a total of 20 further times over the course of the past century.

(11/2004) Girard-Perregaux's new CAT'S EYE line of ladies' watches was launched in Asia at the end of October at the Hong Kong Grand Hyatt. The presentation took place in sumptuous surroundings and aroused tremendous enthusiasm among the female guests.

(11/2004) As part of the celebrations marking the 50th anniversary of the Singapore-based SINCERE distribution network and its spectacular "Celebration of Time" exhibition in Takashimaya Square, GIRARD-PERREGAUX had the honour of holding a "Watchmaker's Atelier" at which the brand presented some of its more remarkable complicated watches.

(10/2004) The latest MARINE 5817 automatic introduces a new movement, a bigger case, a rubber strap and a redesigned dial to Breguet’s popular sports model. The Marine watches trace their ancestry to the chronometers A. -L. Breguet made for the French royal navy from 1815. Designed for reliability, they achieve their elegance through the modern application of Breguet’s traditional aesthetic values.

(09/2004) In 1969, BREITLING created the first selfwinding chronograph movement: Caliber 11, a mechanism in which the spring is wound by means of an off-centered oscillating weight. This invention would enable the development of a whole range of chronographs named CHRONO-MATIC, instantly recognizable thanks to their left-placed crown, a specific feature due to the modular construction of the movement.

(09/2004) Swatch has now successfully participated at three Olympic Games as the Official Timekeeper (1996 in Atlanta, 2000 in Sydney and 2004 in Athens, where the company was also responsible for on-venue results systems and integration services), and Swatch Group Ltd. has now decided that its most traditional timekeeping brand worldwide, Omega Ltd., will assume this responsibility.
